2019 NHL Mock Draft

Here is our 2019 NHL mock draft, with team needs and tendencies loosely taken into consideration.

The draft order is based on the reverse standings as of the morning of Dec. 17th. While Tampa holds the most points, we'll consider them the Stanley Cup Champs, and hence their pick going to the Rangers.

The 57th NHL Entry Draft will be held on June 21st and 22nd in Vancouver.

Profile pages have been updated with new reports. Stats, profile notes and videos to players in our mock, and we'll continue to update throughout the season.
